Default New seats! (pic)

Got rid of the cloth ones and bought some Summit brand seats. They match perfectly with the ebony interior too! Im very pleased with them. I used my stock brackets and just had to drill another whole in them to line up with the hole on the seat. Very easy to install and they feel and look great!

Do you have the part number or color code? And you have a 2002 camaro with the Ebony interior? It almost looks like you have a 98/99 with the light gray. Must be the flash from your camera.... Anyway, are they seriouisly that much more comfortable? Do they make driving more enjoyable? I may have to bite the bullet. I hate my stock seats. The only thing holding me back is my friend had some that were too narrow and they made me feel like I couldn't breathe because they hugged my kidney's so hard. How tall/big are you? I'm 5'10", about 180, 34" to 36" waistline. Do you feel crammed into them? Put it this way, could you go on a few-hour drive in them without having to stop to rest?
How do they feel quality wise? They don't look cheap from the picture, but in person? Are they plasticy or more leather feeling/looking? The stock seats look/feel like plastic to me so I guess it couldn't be any worse. Sorry for all the Q's, I'm just really interested. Thanks.

Can we get some very close-up pics? I want to see the material up close. I like the smooth look and some look smooth but in the close-ups they are grainy.

edit: I just looked for them on Summit and could not find them. I went to JEGS however and they have the exact same seats from the picture. I was damn near ready to order when I saw the rotary recline feature. I defenitely do not like that. It would take forever. Do yours have a handle or the rotary ****? I'm guessing the **** since these seats look identical and are probably from the same manufacturer.

And one last thing- are they soft/comfortable? I can't tell. They "look" kind of hard actually.

Must have been really excited to sit in them after they were installed.

They look really nice and that's a great price as well. Fairly light-weight?
